Are Disney Parks Loungefly Bags Worth It? + Tips to Get Them 50% Off on Shop Disney
VloĆŸit
- Äas pĆidĂĄn 14. 08. 2024
- Loungefly backpacks have become an extremely popular staple at the Disney Parks, but they are also an extremely expensive. For a long time, I didn't own any Loungefly bags for that reason, but I figured out ways to save up to and over 50% on Disney Parks Loungefly backpacks on ShopDisney. I do not at all think Loungefly bags are worth the $75-90 they are sold for in the Parks. I do though, think they are definitely worth the $40 you can get them for if you're savvy with deals. My top tips are: utilize the savings and discounts you can get with a Disney Visa Card, sign up for email updates from Shop Disney to catch flash sales, and wait to purchase any seasonal bags until the end of the season when they're heavily marked down on sale.

Have a Zip-a-Dee-Doo Disney day! °o°
*Let me know what you think about the Disney Parks Loungefly backpacks! Would you pay $90 retail for one of these bags?* I think these backpacks should have a retail of around $40, which is around what I got all of these bags for. *EDIT 12/23, this morning Shop Disney now has the Santa Mickey backpack on sale for $22.50!!!* Jokes on me for thinking I got a good deal on this one đ
UPDATE! I just checked Shop Disney, and this morning they put some crazy markdowns on some Loungefly bags, the Santa Mickey is now $37.50!!
I honestly think the retail price is fine. It puts them in the price range of a kanken bag which is about $70 for a mini. I plan to buy one in the parks with an AP discount tomorrow. Though my willingness to do so is relative to my income. When I was in college I might have felt differently.
Honestly, I wouldn't want to buy a bag that would retail at $40 they would have to reduce the quality. I've worked in the garment industry for about 20 years and often there is a reason why things are at the price point they are at. It's not just Disney greed since it is a 3rd party manufacturer making them. In general things the last few years clothing prices have dropped to the unsustainable level.
Now it's the Dooney and Burkes that are the real rip off in terms of quality for your dollar. It only feels like it's worth more because of the name and limited quantity but making less of something doesn't necessarily mean it's made better.
It really isnât worth the price, but if itâs on sale thatâs another story ;) even when other you tubers get it in their mystery boxes , itâs still a lot of $$$ đ
I wait til they end up in the character warehouse..
@@safariprint1972 A 10 year old boy fully grabbed me by the crotch while waiting inline last time I was at the outlet. I think I'm too scarred by that experience to go back.
I think having fewer pockets is a bonus. In the early days I had a âsecurity guardâ dump my credit cards, id, and other valuables because he was convinced he was going to find something in some tiny little pocket. Spoiler, he found nothing. It wasnât a secret dimension, just a small zip pocket. So bags the gate check people are familiar with is honestly something to consider when making your decision.
The side pockets are perfect for phone chargers!! Thatâs what I use them for, and itâs in a good position to have the cord attached to your phone.
yes that works so well and I feel fine placing my phone on the side actually at least at the park when I'm jut strolling. I'm guilty I own wayyyyy too many of these!
also great for park maps if you don't know where to go
A lot of these bags end up at the outlets, especially the seasonal designs. The outlets had the pumpkin Loungefly several weeks before Halloween.
Angie Levitt it wasnât several weeks before Halloween .. đđđ
@@memebonita Actually, it was. They started showing up at the outlets in the middle of October.
I recently purchased 2 Loungefly backpacks on our last trip. I do think that they are very overpriced in the Parks, but I donât totally regret my decision to pay retail (less the Disney Visa discount). On these particular backpacks it was worth it to me to be able to pick one with a pattern placement that I liked. However on backpacks where itâs not a factor, I totally agree that Shop Disney (with stacked discounts) is the way to go. I picked up the Santa Mickey backpack for only $5 (got it down to $39 with discounts and then used my Rewards $). Thank you for making this very informative video because I donât think that a lot of people realize they can get a better deal on these bags...well done! đ
So I find this bag to be incredibly useful when used in conjunction with my fiance's full sized backpack. He carries the water bottles and rain jackets (WDW is our "home" park so lots of rain) and I use my small bag for things we access more often or don't want to get squished (snacks, park maps, portable battery, sunscreen, etc.). It is also the perfect bag for putting sunglasses and ears in before getting on the ride and quickly retrieving when getting off the ride. I love my bag but would 100% not collect them. I am in love with the one that I have.
So its useful when someone else is carrying everything. Got it :)
Iâve been collecting loungefly bags for 2-3 years. I have over 40 of them. If you wait for a sale, thereâs a chance they could sell out before trying to get a discount.
Also, I donât mind paying full price for them. Itâs the one thing I treat myself with and they double as decoration around my room, much like some people collect the ears.
Do the bags last? Because they are made of faux leather which usually just peels off after a few years. :/
I've had my loungefly disney backpack for almost a year now and have used it everyday as a purse. Held up well and I get so many compliments on it. I'm in canada and I purchased mine at EB Games. Only about 50 bucks. Definitely worth it for me.
What a great video! What I've learned the last couple of years, is that Disney tiers their pricing based on opportunity. Items in the parks will always be the most expensive, but sometimes will be discounted if not selling well, think of the spirit jars for Haunted Mansion. Disney changes designs so frequently, they are bound to have surplus inventory they need to sell online, through the Character Warehouses or even showing up in Disney Stores, sometimes on sale, sometimes not. If you see it in the parks and you really want it for your trip, you are more likely to pick it up and pay extra. If you can wait, ShopDisney is a great option, especially when using D23 membership discounts and paying attention to sales. A lot of the more expensive style brands have a higher margin, so Disney can mark them down more deeply and still make money.
Iâm a vacationer who isnât local but I use it as a park bag. Itâs always worked for us, but we donât have kids and we always go back to the room at least once a day. Iâve also never paid full retail price for one. I think it works for young adults like myself who go yearly and know the parks well, but carry a minimal amount to the parks.
I never paid full price for them. My sister used to work at Disney so during the holidays I would use her 40% off discount and then now I just wait for sales before I buy any. Me personally I find the bags very functional and when I go to the parks I donât carry much anyways. The side pockets I mostly use for my chapstick and hairpins. I fit everything I need to fit in it with plenty of space left. Now if youâre a vacationer and or with your kids this definitely is not the bag for you for park use.
Just bought myself the Holiday Treats Disney Parks Loungefly backpack for $33! [retail $75, marked to sale price of $37.50, then 10% off with my Disney Visa!]
I picked this one up today also. With all of these sales on Shop Disney I feel itâs the beginning of a Loungefly addiction for me. It will go perfectly with my Minnie Ears obsession lol.
I just saw that one on their site and thought it looked perfect for you!
Great video!! Thanks for your tips on how to save money and still get a great Disney bag!! Off to get these 2 bags you just posted.
TFS I just saw Santa Mickey bag for $37.50 on shoo Disney đ
UPDATE! My holiday treats bag arrived today, and the Disney Parks Loungefly logo is upside down đ They donât have any more in stock to exchange, so they refunded me and let me keep the bag!
Disney is actually hoping you do use these as park bags, that's why they are smaller and only have one big pocket, the size limits what you can bring making you buy more food and stuff like that at the park making them more money and the pocket is nice for Security checks as there is only one zlipper to unzip and look in for the big pocket, saving them time.
Some of the Loungefly bags do have pockets inside. I have two non-park bags and they do have an extra pocket inside. Also, from someone who uses my bags daily, I think although they do seem quite small (which made me doubtful about them at first), they do have quite a lot of room and fit a lot of essentials. The park ones are more expensive, so I do think the regular Loungefly bags are more worth it.
how much backspace do you need though? unless you're a mom bringing all kinds of extra things for your children, i don't see why you need a bag any bigger than an LF. i do agree with you though that some of them are ridiculously expensive. i have only bought 3 of my bags at full price, but it was because i really wanted them. as for the side pocket comments, these bags are supposed to be like purses, adding stretchy side pockets would ruin their design. and if you have a clip on your water bottle you could just clip it to the bottom of your backpack strap. i do that when i'm at disney. these bags do have inside zipper pockets but it depends on which one you get. as you seen not all have them. overall they are worth it. just get them (as you said) discounted, as they are not real leather and not worth $70-90.
XANAXXTASY right ! I only carry a water bottle my debit card pass and what ever snacks I wanna bring but why need this huge bag ya know and itâs easier to fit on rides vs a bigger bag . I love my LF
@@jazzybarrios4106 so do I. I think I have 5 in total bc I'm a collector. They're so convenient & cute.
I bring just what I need. They carry everything I need and I carry mine everyday instead of a â purse.â Iâm a Disney Lounge Fly collector and use them as decorations too. Lol
New to loungefly bags so I'm late to these vids. I think the price is right. 80 is pricey enough to be special buys and meaningful.
The only one I've ever been nuts over is the recent castle bags. Specifically I want to get the Sleeping Beauty castle bag. If they still have it when I'm back to Anaheim in May, I'll make a point of picking it up then.
That is a beautiful bag...I've been thinking about that one, too.
That is a very nice bag. I bought it for my daughters' Christmas gift.
I have the Tangled castle bag and it's my absolute favorite! The castle bags are really cute.
Both me and my mom have worn loungefly mini backpacks around the parks and it honestly works great for us! My mom is able to store her phone in the outside pocket and I can fit a water bottle, sketchbook, and a plush in mine! I highly recommend it as long as you aren't carrying things for a large family
I agree that they need to have more pockets or organization. I tried using a felt organizer I purchased on Amazon. It didnât work well as the organizer pockets were too tight in that small backpack, and it is too deep to only use the bottom, wasted space at the top. I appreciate the character designs, the materials, and the nice zippers. I have two favorites that I like to carry. The other ones I donât feel like I need, as they arenât practical for daily life for me. I donât like the on and off of backpacks while trying to get my items. Thanks đ for the video and bringing up the topic! đ
My work just recently started selling loungefly! I have six so farđ putting my 30% off to good use
Sebastian D where do you work??
Brenna Pailer A boutique!
I love the parks attraction design backpack and ears that you have...that is such an adorable pattern.
It's great you did this video! They marked down both the Christmas backpacks to $37.50 this past week and even though I had already bought the Santa one discounted when it was still $90 and then returned it, I had to buy it again because at the $30 price point (which is what it was when I combined it with a 20% off offer I had) it was too low to pass up! My problem with that bag and the reason why I returned it in the first place was when I discovered the front pocket was missing in the design. For me that is crucial because I use it for my cell phone and wallet and parking pass since I do live close enough to the DLR parks to be able to use it as a day bag. But without that pocket it lost its appeal at $90! So it is great you are telling more people to watch out for these sales as they are super helpful to save money and the only reason I now own a few Parks bags. I previously only owned the Box Lunch or Hot Topic ones - I do go to Box Lunch enough to warrant spending money to make the Box Lunch money coupons work for me though. Oh and btw I forgot to reach back out to you for our pin trade so I will message you soon!
I really think it depends on what's important to you. If practicality is important then maybe the soft large Loungfly rucksacks might be better (they're also cheaper typically), but if you like the aesthetic and fashion of it then these are perfect. Most people typically travel to the parks with another person, so you can always have a large water bottle between you in their bag.
I've gone to Disneyland Paris and only taken my Plush Oswald bag, which only fits my purse in and had a great time. I've also taken my Epcot 35th Loungfly to WDW and had no issues. But I think it depends on what you take, what you need, and what you prefer.
But I agree these park ones are waaaay too pricey... I paid $80 (?) for my Epcot one. But you can get normal non-park disney bags for about ÂŁ50 if you're lucky.
I've just gone to check how much I did pay for my EPCOT bag... and they're now retailing for $200? It's a lovely bag and I would never part with it.... but it's not worth that much.
I got one and I totally love it! I didn't want to actually spend that much on it myself lol so my boyfriend got it for me but WOW . I beat the crap out of that thing and its been holding up so well! I've been using it as an every day purse for years.
Those side pockets are surprisingly good. I usually put my credit cards and lipsticks in there. One time I forgot to move them out, and they survived a few rides. Surprisingly, I didnt lose anything. I do wish they were a bit bigger or something
Thank you!!! Iâve always wondered about the functionality of these bags since I am a classic over packer and need to take my water bottle, sunscreen, hat, hand sanitizer, etc. everywhere when in the parks! And I wish there were better pockets on the sides and inside. But there is no denying that the bags look ADORABLE while walking around in the parks! I love that you have an everyday one, a Halloween one, and a Christmas one. đđđ đ»
Thank you SO much for this! I was obsessed with them when I saw them in the parks last month, so this video was super helpful for when I wanna pick one up for my next trip!
I have used my Mickey Pumpkin back for a Halloween display piece and I have attached it to my scooter as an accessory to carry some extra things for me since I'm partially handicapped. When one is handicapped and uses a scooter to move around in a mall it helps to be able to put gloves, hats, etc someplace so they won't fall out. It worked out very well this past fall. I used all the way up to Thanksgiving.
I would love a Parks Loungefly, but for now, my pretty light pink castle Loungefly from Hot Topic will do. The only thing with the HT ones versus the Parks ones is the straps arenât as nice. Mine does have an interior zipper pocket, though! Also: Wow. Just found out this bag, which retails around $35, is being sold on Poshmark for $90. đ But I also find stacking my anniversary and birthday HT cash will give me an extra $10 off without having to purchase anything to get that cash.
lovelylinds Hot Topic tends to have lower quality bags. They donât have the sturdy Loungefly zipper. Box Lunch is the way to go for better quality and you can often find 20% off or more sales.
I got my first bag!! Itâs the black widow đ„șđplus wallet as well. But however I never use it cause Iâm saving it cause itâs so beautiful!! Also I find a purse as well! Iâm saving up so my black widow collection can be complete. Also I love the stitch ones as well đ„șđIâm new to this brand as well. Iâm most likely going collect themđ„șI might order another black widow one so I can use it when I can travel again cause itâs super beautiful!!
I live in Maine, so not very close to WDW, but I love my Loungefly for the parks, I can fit my large Hydroflask, phone, portable phone charger, two to three snacks, wallet, sunglasses w/ case, I have a large collection of pins and pressed pennies that I also carry around with me that also fit in my bag, and thatâs only the large pocket, in the small front pocket I carry hand sanitizer, chapstick, any toiletries, and anything else I need, I also attach a carabiner to the bottom of my shoulder strap so that I can attach my ears to my bag without them getting lost, I would definitely recommend these bags, they are also really sturdy, I had a flaw with the zipper of one of mine and they returned it without any complaints what so ever!
I just checked ShopDisney (11 am on 12/18/2019) and that Santa Mickey backpack is down to $37.50 ...that's a great price!
I bought my first one in the park because I loved them and Iâm very happy! I was gifted a second (most likely from hot topic) which I love! And after watching your video I picked up Santa Mickey for 50% off đ± so thank you!! Absolutely love that one
I use these as my every day bag and in the parks. Some designs are larger/smaller than others. I have a 101 Dalmatians one that is quite large compared to my Lion King one (which is my smallest) and then various sizes in-between. But regardless of size, they actually can hold a lot. I can fit a small umbrella, full size wallet, power bank for my phone, a little makeup bag, sunglasses case and more into even my smallest one.
Just to let you know shop Disney has the Christmas Mickey Mouse loungefly backpack for $37.50 now like today.
I work for Disneyland so I get 40% during the holidays and I shop at Company D... thatâs how I have so many lounge fly backpacks
For half the price, you can get a really nice Lug backpack that has awesome organization. They offer a "Minnie inspired" pattern called Crimson Large Dot if you want a Disney type of pattern.
Literally love this!!!â€
In total agreement with EVERYTHING you said here! Particularly for those of us who really need organization in our bags - I think maybe that part of their selling the matching expensive wallets - because then people get both. Anyway, love this! Oh, and if people don't have the Visa Rewards, they can join D23 for free, and still get the D23 check out discount of 10% off of $50 or more- only down side is you can't stack it with Visa Rewards discount!
I've eyed these backpacks my entire trip to Disneyland but the $75-90 price tag made me shy away. After seeing this video and knowing they DO go on sale and that Hot Topic has them as well. I just a day ago bought my first bags: the Minnie Mouse Sequin Candy Corn (retail $90) that she spoke about for $38.22 from the Shop Disney sale, and the Maleficent Villians Series (retail $49) for $22 from Hot Topic sale. I'm very excited, both bags are base colored black so I can use them in daily life easily, and the Villians series bags have an internal ZIP pocket so I love that it has that.
OH MY GOD. I thought I was the only one who had an obsession with these bags. I freaking LOVE these bags the designs are so cute and they almost always have a matching wallet!
I donât know if your a pass holder or not! Fortunately I am.I have 9 loungefly mini backpacks and counting. They are a great park bag/collector/ style bag! These work for us whom go to the parks about two- four times a week and donât need a all day care to much all Bag! Also a few tips the loungefly bags are perfect to fit on rides and can tuck away quick! Also you donât really want a bag with to many zippers and compartments people tend to forget when you go threw security you have to go threw each and every compartment so the more simple the backpacks the better!!! And a loungefly is worth it maybe not full price but definitely worth it. And not always you can get bags at a cheap price Iâve seen bags gone and never to be seen again i would say if you really really want it but it donât wait! Please be careful the info you are giving these viewers because itâs not always the same Disneyland changes daily and for people who are visiting in the summer lots of merchandise will be gone and new merchandise will be in its place! Just keep that in mind â€ïž
i love loungefly bags! i have a pink sleeping beauty one that is about the standard size and i can fit my lunch, water, wallet and more. it definitely works as my purse. they are also really sturdy and durable, you can barely tell ive used mine every day for a year.
If you are a rewards member of BoxLunch then we web match in store if the website has a better deal then we match it. Which means when a bag goes on sale online go in store and web match the price. More often the sales for the bags are better online
Iâve always used the side pockets to hold small water bottles/energy drinks.
It also held my hydro when I went to to parks. So theyâre not that useless but I understand what you mean
Danielle Santillanes I feel like theyâre small, and if I put anything in the pockets, it /severely/ affects what I can get in the large zippered part and doesnât look nice, so I just donât use them. Iâd rather just put my water bottle inside the bag.
lovelylinds I guess itâs personal preference then. I somehow can manage to keep my phone, portable chargers, socks, sandals (for wet rides)/shoes (if I wear sandals for the day), extra pair of leggings, chapstick, bathroom spray, and usually a couple of small snacks like rice crispy treats. So personally for me I can fit a lot in the big pocket and still put my energy drinks/small waters.
Even the small front pocket I keep lots in there too like plastic bags for phones, Tylenol, extra deodorant, roll on perfume, and a lipstick or two.
I have two lounge fly backpackâs, and I also have a third one that is a Donald Duck felt backpack, itâs not leather and it is like collapsible and itâs easy to take on planes and it is a little bit larger then the leather lounge fly backpackâs, so if you would like a lounge fly backpack that is a little bit bigger that you can put water bottles or anything else in. Then I would definitely recommend getting that one. There are many pockets, and is one of the better ones.
I really like the bags. I have 2. One was a birthday present (the design is sleeping beautyâs castle). Itâs absolutely beautiful & my friend totally surprised me!! The second bag is Santa Mickey. I purchased it about a week & a half ago when shop Disney had a 40% sale & free shipping!! With the sale price bring so good I couldnât resist!! I agree with you-when shop Disney has a good sale itâs worth it to purchase!! Btw-I live in Southern California & I am an annual passholder. Iâll still choose shop Disney for a good discount over buying @ park-at least for some items anyway!! Iâm totally enjoying Santa Mickey at my discounted rate!! Happy holidays!
Iâm from the Uk and I got the pale blue Stitch loungefly bag with matching wallet for our trip to WDW in August past. I fount it perfect for a full day in the parks. I was able to fit a packet of wipes, tissues (I have a 6 year old) plus my fuel rod and charging lead in the front zip pocket. The main pocket help a foldable portable fan, my pac a Mac rain coat my wallet, phone and a notebook and pen. It would have fitted in a bottle of water but I froze the water overnight so I but it into an insulated thing and clipped it the the loop at the top of the bag with a carabiner clip. All in all for 14 days park hopping it was perfect.
Oh the really tiny side pockets are perfect for keeping a park map and a times in and are with easy reach!
My sequin one has a pocket on the inside. And the one from hot topic (lilo and stitch) has a zipper pocket on the inside as well but I can tell the quality isnât as nice (reason why they are under $40 regular price)
Natalie Meza yes the Quality of the LF bags at HT is not as nice I have had two straps come unstitched from the back will never buy a cheaper lounge fly bag again from Hot Topic I have learned my lesson on that The cheaper quality bags have the straps stitched right onto the back and the more expensive high-quality ones are stitched more to the side with much better support I have quite a few lounge fly backpackâs and purses if you look on their website they always have amazing deals
My daughter uses her large Ariel Loungefly backpack everyday. I got it for 50.00. I thought that was a bargain. I bought my nieces small Loungefly backpacks for Christmas. I think I paid 35.00 ea. I first saw Disney Loungefly bags, wallets etc in a gift shop in Laughlin, NV. I thought they were reasonably priced and really cute. Thanks for the hints on way to save money.
I actually immediately went to check my Rosegold Loungefly mini backpack from the park when she showed there was no pocket in hers.. đ The rosegold ones has a large pocket inside though.. I thought they were all the same đ¶
Love my loungefly backpacks . If you go on their web site they also have incredible sales. I use to buy Dooney and Bourke bags( which I still love) . You can purchase Lounge Fly via at Hot Topic, Box Lunch, their web site, Disney parks, and each place has different styles and different prices, different discounts. I prefer the backpacks with the double zippers ,because when I travel I clip the zippers together ; or in line at the park, to give my self peace of mind . These bags last a long time , they clean well, they hold a lot of items. When going through security if you put items in clear cosmetic bags itâs a breeze. They also make Great Wall decorations for us weird Disneyland fans.đđ
I actually thought about buying the Mickey Jack OâLantern Loungefly during my and my brotherâs first ever trip to Disney World which was during the Halloween season of 2019, but then I decided against it because Iâm not paying 80 bucks for a mini backpack that Iâll only use from October 1st to Halloween every year. Maybe if I ever find it at a thrift store or flea market for 5 bucks, I might consider getting it. The Loungeflyâs I did get are worth it because none of those are based off of a specific holiday, so I can use them year round.
Good tips. There are 2 bags on sale right now at shop Disney for $36 and $37 dollars. The genie one and park snacks. I wouldn't have even checked if it wasn't for this video.
We got a loungefly Stitch bag for my daughter and a matching wallet. My Dad thought it was nuts but she wanted something to put her art stuff in when we go places. Hopefully they hold up. Hers is a tad bigger than those and denim. Her loungefly bag is the same size as the flowery bag you had
Mickey Santa bag is cute. I donât think of Loungefly for park bags, more everyday bags. Loungefly should create some new functionality in these minis, I agree.
I think the sale price is definitely worth it. Also if you need bigger bags boxlunch carries some bigger than normal mini backpack styles. The toy story gray one is a bit bigger pretty perfect I think.
Great video! I love your tips on how to get a discount. I have 4 Loungefly backpacks, 2 sequin ones that I bought full price except my AP discount. My rose gold sequin backpack actually has a slip pocket inside. I was very disappointed when they stopped putting any pockets inside.
I have a mini pack from loungefly too and I agree but I did a new stitch loungefly backpack from box lunch that is bigger and since Iâm riding the bus to work itâs more functional then my Star Wars one. The pockets are bigger and more roomy. Looks like loungefly maybe responding to people wanting more stuff to put in their backpacks. I bought mine on sale. I saved about 20-30% for the grand opening of the store in the mall near my house.
Sales are very rare where I live - Australia - & you're lucky if you get $10 off. Shopping international isn't worth the cost. We may get the product cheaper but almost $70 shipping before $ conversion more than blows away any savings. However, I do use my mini backpack & 3 handbags all the time. I don't usually spend a lot on clothes, shoes, bags etc... so my family don't mind the cost as birthday/Christmas presents from our local stocker. It's usually around $100 for the handbags & backpacks, $50-60 for purses.
I just found your channel. I can't wait to see more of your videos. Hope you have a wonderful week. đđđ
I totally fit a water bottle in the side pocket.
I like the park perks with the meet-n-greets with the Visa.
These backpacks look really cute.
My purple Haunted Mansion bag has a little slip pocket inside the bag but my castle one doesn't and its a shame. They should all have a little pocket inside
For a parks bag, I need a backpack that can hold a pin album AND a binder. I haven't found a Disney styled backpack that size that I like yet. I'm sure there are companies that have made them that big and probably less expensive than Loungefly bags.
I was able to buy a teacup loungefly through the character warehouse. Iâm hoping to get another one sometime in the future. I love the attraction one. Downside to them is the straps arenât big enough to fit over my winter coat so theyâre only good for 3 seasons where I live
Love this video. I agree, itâs Instagrammable but is it practical ? Ugh decisions decisions lol. But I donât own any right now. Seeing your video makes me want to get a holiday one. The sweet treats one is going for $37.50 right now.
I have been wanting to get some of these backpacks đ. Thanks for sharing your tips on them and how to save on them. They are all so darling I donât know which one to choose for my Birthday gift. You are a doll and I am going to subscribe to your channel.
These bags are super cute, but I thought the same thing, they just aren't that functional. They have some really cute designs at box lunch that do get pretty cheap sometimes.
You can always find mini loungefly for around 40 dollars at hot topic! I have a pokemon one, a stitch one, a little Mermaid one, a star wars one, and I'm waiting for my Up wilderness explorer one I just ordered!
As a Canadian, I'm always super jealous of all the fun things shop disney sells. But shipping to Canada and then conversion onto of it, its absolutely outrageous. I've always wanted a loungefly back pack. But I doubt I will ever get one lol.
Rebecca A Iâm an American that lives in Canada and I can tell you I just bought one of those loungefly bags and I also bought two Jack and Sally sweatshirts, in total it ended up costing $178 USD but then with the currency exchange ended up costing me $241
I found a really pretty Elsa Loungefly bag for $50 on Amazon and it seems to be a good parks bag (outer zippered pocket, inner zipper pocket, not sure about the side pockets yet). I definitely wouldn't pay $90 for one, but I just couldn't resist at this price point.
I just purchased my first Disney Loungefly backpack, and I certainly did not pay full price. I think I paid under $60 and I am MUCH more comfortable with that price point. There are so many cute bags though!
I only have two loungefly back packs. Both my husband bought as an gift. My first one is the woody backpack and the other other I got on my first box of bibbidy bobbidy boxes and itâs cruella de vil. I would never pay retail price. My husband got it when it was on sale.
I got the haunted mansion wallpaper bag on it had an inside pocket in the interior of the bag. I thought that it was good enough for the amount of stuff I brought to the parks with me every day. I did use the side pockets for my phone a few times and it didnât seem like to was going to fall out, but I have a pop socket so that might have been part of it.
I look on eBay first to see if I could get them cheaper. Or wait til loungefly puts them on sale. I got a cute rick and morty one for 15$
I hate the straps... they are not big enough for plus size gals..they are also just not very flexible
I agree $90 is way too much. I got a cruise Minnie mouse loungefly through a personal shopper from Character Warehouse for $40... it was originally 75 or 80.. and the others I've gotten have been through supscription boxes. The christmas mickey is REALLY NICE....
Thanks for the tips. Iâve wanted to buy loungefly bags for granddaughters. Didnât know how to get them new outside park/Disney stand-alone stores. đđœ
I agree that they are too expensive for what they are. 40-50 would be more like it. I feel the same about Dooney & Bourke and Vera Bradley. I would absolutely have to LOVE the pattern to spend anywhere near that much, and while I could afford it I just canât justify it đą.
Back to the Loungefly bags, I have the same issues as you about no inside pockets. It would be nice to have a small zipped pocket on the back wall and a couple of slip pockets (pen and phone size) on the front wall. Most backpacks of this size/style have those as standard.
I think the side pockets arenât too bad. As small as the bag is I think a water bottle on the outside would make if too clunky. I donât have one of these (price) but I have similar in other brands. Those slim side pockets are perfect for a pack of tissues, wet wipes, hand sanitizer wipes, lip balm... small things like that that you might want quick access to rather than dig through your bag, and pickpockets wonât be interested in (and if they get stolen it wonât matter).
I do keep eyeing them up every time I go, but I just canât bring myself to do it. If I saw a design I liked at a decent sale price (like at character warehouse) Iâd get one, but so far no luck.
That Santa one is absolutely adorable. I hope you enjoyed it through the holidays đđ
Lol okay so I bought my first lounge fly Disney back pack and itâs the star wars one but itâs from hot topic I love it but it started to fade really easy and I paid $80 for it
I think I bought the same one! Mine was like 40 dollars though. I love collecting them
My haunted mansion lounge fly does have a smaller pocket in the big pocket... good to know to check though!
Hey Emily I did get a loungefly bag today for my birthday and when you said u wished they had internal pockets the one I got and most of the loungefly bags have pockets ;)
Love all the bags. I love a good deal. Iâll have to check online.
I use my pumpkin Mickey year round, I love pumpkins and mickey!
I paid full price for a star wars bag the quality is good I can fit a light weight jacket and it has made it on many disney trips but I canât justify buying another one for fun it was expensive but I love it
I donât mind spending money on these bags but I would only spend it for a bag that has somewhat of a different shape like the russel bag since it doesnât seem like every other loungefly bag.
Why carry bottled water? There is literally free cups of water all over. Vs carrying the weight. I have the attraction bag. It's perfect as a park bag for me. I use it as a daily purse often too.
While not exclusively for the parks, I found Yzma as a kitty backpack on Boxlunch for $51.92 right now! I know you might be interested in that. :)
I have three of them and took advantage of a 25% off Disney store. I added cosmetic organizers for the lack of inner pockets. My fave is the Haunted Mansion wallpaper.
Yeah all the bags should a least over inside pocket. We should all @loungefly about it...
What organizer did you use?
@@LADYmoses just a couple of cosmetic organizers but almost ordered an actual purse organizer from amazon that looked like it could work.
"Useless side pockets" lol I love pockets but you're right, the side pockets can barely fit anything... besides lipgloss and pens. That's why I am hesitant to buy Loungefly bags but some of the designs are so cute though and I have to buy them. >< You're lucky in the US that you can get discounts for Loungefly bags... and you also have Vera Bradley bags. I loved the Vera Bradley bags I got!! (I'm in Australia, btw) We have to pay full price here majority of the time and there's barely any discounts on Loungefly bags.... Just the occasional $10 off. Those mini backpacks range are roughly $100-$130 each here... and our currency rate used to be on par with US$. Ouch. Thank you for your review. :)
The Santa Mickey backpack is currently marked down to $37.50 on shopdisney.
No way? I fit my water bottle all the time!
love the bags, thank you for the discount information
Love this video! I'm a disney visa cardholder, as well. However, I never know about the extra savings, other than the standard 10% off. Is there some sort of email list I'm missing out on? Thanks in advance!
I much rather have the Disney Loungefly bags that are sold at Box Lunch. They have more unique designs and for me more worth the price. I got a Lilo and Stitch one exclusive to Box Lunch and for me it has lasted better than the park bag I got on a cruise.
They are very fashion over function. I normally wait to combine my coupons at BoxLunch, got the cutest BaTB bag for half the price!
i'm getting one of these bags for my birthday next week, but it's not disney, it's blue's clues lmao
They are definitely pricey...and they seemed to jump in popularity and price in the past year or two. But they have some really adorable designs...so, there's always at least one out that I really want. :P But I agree that they don't have everything I would need for a main bag...more pockets and more useful pockets would be nice.
